CAN THE UNIVERSAL CONSUMPTION
BE SUCCESSFULLY TREATED.
DR.. Borgeon. a leading French doc
tor, has a new treatment for consump'
ton.
He gives IN enema of carbonic acid
and sulphuretted hydrogen gases, the
latter gas carrying the former into
every part of the throat and lungs.
This treatment, too, is directed at
effects-the cause remains undisturbed
What this cause is has been stated by
perhaps the highest pulmonary author
ity in the world, {. e., the Brompto on
Hospital for Cohsumptives, in London,
Eng.
This malady every year carries of
from o~ne-seventh to one-ffth of the
entire population of England
DIR. Payne, NJ. d., NJ. r. &. p, Lon.
don, is authority for this statement.
The same or a greater proportion of
deaths obtains in America.
DR.. Payne also says that one half the
total number of deaths from all other
causes have seeds of this disease in the
system which only require some irri-
TAM to developi
DR.. Herman Brehmer, an eminent
German authority, says that consump-
is caused by deficient nutrition of the
lungs, by poor blood.
These authorities cannot be disputed.
The medical world recognizes them.
The uric acid is the Irritant in the
blood that causes the development of
the seeds which DR.. Brehmer says lie
dormant In the blood.
Every particle of blood which passes
through the lungs and heart, also goes
through the kidneys, and If they are in
the least deranged they cannot rid the
blood of its killing poison. The thou
sand little hair-lke eve tubes Of the
kidneys very easily get blocked up and
diseased; and when they do, they COR
rupt instead of purifying the blood,
Kidney disease may exist, and yet no
pain occur in that organ, because it
is deficient in nerves of sensation.
Dip your finger in acid every day
and It soon testers and is destroyed.
Send acid poisoned blood through the
lungs every second, and they soon give
way.
The Brompton Hospital investlga-
ton showed that 81 per cent. of the
victims of consumption were afflicted
with deraDged kidneys, which permit
ted the uric acid poison to remain in
the blood and irritate the lungs. This
uric acid is always fighting every vital
organ, and if there be any inherent
weakness In the lungs it inevitably
causes pneumonia, cough and consump-
ton.
The real cause of pulmonary troubles
being so authoritatively shown to be
faulty even though unsupported action
of the kidneys, explains why, in order
to master the dreaded consumption,
one must rid the blood of the uric acid
irritant which intlames and burns up
the lung substance. For this purpose
there is nothing equal to that great
specific, Warmers safe cure. This
remedy has now the favor of medical
men all over the world purely on its
merits. We have no doubt that II the
kidneys are kept in natural action,
consumption and a great many other
diseases, caused by urlc-acid, will not
only be cured but will be prevented.
When the kidney is healthy, no albu-
men appears in the water, but albumen
is found in the water of more than half
of those who die of consumption
This, then is the condition of things
that always precedes consumption (:
First, weakened kidneys; second, re-
tanned uric acid, poisoning the blood;
third, the development of disease IN the
lungs by the irritant acids passing
through them. Then there is a little
cough in the morning; soon thick, yell
low matter is spit up, followed by loss
of flesh and strength, with dreadful
night sweats; and when the patient goes
to his school physician for help, he
is put on cod liver oil which his
stomach. weakened also by uric acid
IN the blood, cannot digest. Be
cause there IS nc pain present in the
kidneys, the patient does not think
they are affected. but the kidney acid
is doing its work every minute, every
hour, day and night, and by-and-by
the disease of the lungs has advanced
until pus is developed, then come
hemorrhages, and at last the CLASSY
stare which denotes that the end is
nearl
A pOst-mortem examination of such
cases shows that the terrible uric acid
has completely destroyed the substance
Of the lung.
1t is impossible to cure lung dis
eases when The blood is poisoned with
uric acid.
